the converter for yabb 2.0 works fine (for a converter) it does require some tinkering to get it working with 2.2.x which is what is in use right now, and major tinkering to get it working with anything newer, but there is a mod that mostly works

you can request, but its not like the smf team is going to drop everything and get right on it, if there is someone else who knows how to do it and has a need to do it then they just [glow]might[/glow] volunteer to do it, it may be tomorrow, it may be well over a year, it may be never as in the case of the yabb 2.4 converter where someone forked out money to an outside developer to make it

no worries ... we want to pull this out asap. Cristian and I are trying to get it done as scheduled mostly because our agenda gets really messy later on. However if I don't see a clear way out by tomorrow night, I might postpone the launching of this. But I feel its pretty close.

Also, once it is ported we will need all the help from everyone to generate other things like the help panels, moving posts, etc. There will be fun for everyone.

Thanks for your concerns though, or as we say in my hometown "OSPA" :-)
